The last problems I remember had been related to Patroni + python-psycopg and PostGIS + pgrouting_96.

We used Patroni before it had been provided by the PGDG repositories. I am actually planning to use the RPMs from the PGDG repo in the future.

I will post our actual problems the next time.

Thanks, Markus
